How can you provide care remotely?
The Covid 19 pandemic created dramatic rethinking about how therapy can and should be delivered. While clinicians have been working on providing teletherapy for quite a few years, it took a global crisis to bring it fully into the mainstream. I have been providing teletherapy for the last three years, on a full time basis for the last year. I have found that while it is not the best intervention for everybody, it is nonetheless a way of overcoming many of the traditional barriers to treatment that can make it so hard to get started, and is every bit as effective for most clients as in-person therapy. When you see me, you don't have to drive to an office or sit in a waiting room. You don't have to take a large portion of your day to attend the appointment. No one can see you walk in and out of a therapists office. You are not limited by geography or transportation. You can attend therapy from the place where YOU feel comfortable, and you can do so in a way that is minimally disruptive to your life. I can provide teletherapy through video, phone, or live text chat. If you are someone who prefers not to be on camera during a session, phone or text could be great alternatives for you. If you are concerned about your own privacy during a session, text chat sessions can be completed pretty much anywhere. Teletherapy allows for a kind of flexibility I think you will come to appreciate!
I am an experienced and empathetic counselor, specializing in issues related to addiction, depression, anxiety, trauma, anger management, relationship issues, spiritual transitions and the stressors and strains of life changes. I have spent my career helping a wide variety of clients to overcome barriers to making changes in their lives and to achieve their recovery goals. I would love to work with you and find out how I can help!

How can you provide care remotely?
I provide remote care through secure telehealth platforms, offering virtual therapy and medication management for patients in Florida and New York. This allows individuals to access high-quality mental health care from the comfort of their homes while ensuring confidentiality, flexibility, and convenience. I also collaborate with other healthcare providers to ensure continuity of care and personalized treatment.
Hello! I’m a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with a passion for helping people achieve better mental health. With licenses in both Florida and New York, I am fully equipped to provide top-notch care to my patients. I earned my Master of Science in Psychiatric Mental Health Nursing from St. Thomas University in Florida and hold a board certification from American Nurses Credentialing Center. Currently, I work at Greenway Wellness, where I diagnose and treat mental health and emotional disorders. I offer both individual and group therapy sessions, and I’m experienced in prescribing and managing medications when needed. My approach is all about collaboration. I work closely with other healthcare professionals to ensure that each patient gets personalized and continuous care. I also take the time to educate patients and their families about mental health, aiming to make everyone feel involved and informed. I’m bilingual in Edo (Nigeria) and English. Treatment philosophy: My experience in diverse healthcare settings has honed my ability to deliver clinical excellence. I treat children and adults from different racial and ethnic backgrounds, aiming to combat cultural stigma and increase mental health awareness. Each individual has a unique past, present, and future. I do not believe in prescribing or treating in a "one size fits all" fashion. I value input and feedback from my patients. I am open-minded, holistic, and solution oriented. My hope is that patients leave their appointment feeling like their concerns have been heard and fully addressed, they were respected and not judged, they have a clear understanding of their treatment plan and have a more hopeful outlook for their future.
